Azig stared at the battlefield with a gloomy face.If the Ming army is allowed to defeat more than 100,000 troops and take over the Yangtze River, then the Qing army will stop at the north bank of the Yangtze River when it goes south this time."
Hurry, hurry!
Rush to the king!
”Azig looked hideous, pulled the reins of the horse, and wanted to rush to kill himself."
Boom!"
In the explosion, the Qing cavalry was overturned by the explosion, and the cavalry behind continued to charge.The old Jiangkou is five or six miles in radius, the Qing army attacked fiercely from the east, west and north, three directions, the battle line was several miles long, and the Ming warships on the river shelled fiercely, but it could not be covered, and the battle line was several miles long.And the loading speed of the breech gun was slow, the Qing cavalry ate a round of cannons, and the forward was almost smashed to the ground, but the cavalry behind quickly rushed up.He Luo would hit the gun on the buttocks of the war horse, and the war horse was in pain, and with a long neigh, it shot out like lightning.Thousands of white-armored elite horsemen, divided into several groups, their hooves beating the ground, launching a charge that shook the ground.Before the appearance of machine guns, the impact of cavalry has always been very powerful, let alone to deal with the rout of the chaotic front.With the support of Jiangshang artillery, the defeated army repelled the attack of the Qing army, but under the fierce battle, the front was already chaotic, and the defeated army did not have time to breathe, did not have time to reorganize the defensive line, and the Qing cavalry rushed up, and it was difficult to form an effective defense.Although the artillery of the Ming army on the river was fierce, there was no line infantry musket salvo to form a multi-level firepower, which obviously could not stop the impact of the Qing cavalry."
Shoot!"
Hao Shaoqi shouted."
Bang bang bang" Ming soldiers, hurriedly raised their muskets, shot a round, dense projectiles splashed out, rushed to the front of the Qing cavalry, and fell in response.The war horse neighed miserably, the horse lost its front hooves, and the cavalry was thrown away by inertia, smashed on the ground and rolled forward, rolling directly to the feet of the Ming musketeers.The Ming sergeant didn't have time to put away the gun, and he was horrified to find that the Qing cavalry behind had rushed to the front, and the spear stabbed into the chest of the Ming sergeant.In an instant, the cavalry of the Qing army appeared in front of the Ming soldiers, and the musketeers and archers of the Ming army shot at the Qing army in a panic, but at such a close distance, the muskets and bows and arrows were difficult to resist the impact of the Qing cavalry, and several groups of cavalry inevitably crashed into the Ming army line.The elite Eight Banners, like a sharp drill, chiseled open the Ming army's front.The cavalry that rushed quickly rushed into the formation with the momentum of ten thousand jun, and the huge impact of the war horse constantly knocked the Ming army in front of them, while the cavalry of the Qing army speared and stabbed, and the war knives flew up and down, invincible.After He Luohui broke into the Ming army, he rushed directly to the dock, trying to prevent the Ming army from boarding the ship.Seeing this, Azig couldn't help but cheer for the Eight Banners warriors, "Good!
The warriors of the two white flags, the majesty of the year is undiminished!
”The cavalry rushed into the Ming army, and the artillery of the Ming army on the river did not dare to be placed indiscriminately, and the cavalry of the Qing army rushed to the left and broke through, and the Ming army collapsed sooner or later, and the 100,000 defeated troops were definitely driven into the river.At this time, Azig could no longer care about recruiting and incorporating this group of Ming troops, but annihilated this group of Ming troops at all costs."
Pikeman, top!"
Li Guo gritted his teeth and roared, "The army must not panic, retreat in an orderly manner!"
”The cavalry of the Qing army broke into the Ming army's formation, but thousands of cavalry, in the sea of more than 100,000 people, plus the undulating hills, rushed left and right for a while, and the speed slowed down.The artillery support of the Ming army on the river, a large number of warships, close to the north bank, boosted the morale of the Ming army, and the elite standard battalion soldiers, raised their spears and blocked the Qing cavalry.A large number of ships docked on the wharf, the Ming army rushed to the edge of the wharf, a group of Wu Yuejun wearing cuirasses holding spears, shields, and swords, jumped down from the warship, Li Benshen waved his hand, Liu Qian and many armor soldiers, wielding mallets, hit the rout."
No chaos, no crowding!"
More than 1,000 Wu Yue troops rushed through the rout and formed a human wall at the entrance of the wharf.Liu Qian roared loudly: "The general has an order, the wounded will withdraw first!"
Each ministry is composed of generals and officers, queues up to evacuate, and those who rush to the front will be punished on the spot!
”Seeing the arrival of the receiving warships, the rout rushed to the dock first, causing the outer forces to be empty and chaotic, making it easy for the Qing army to rush in.Countless Ming troops were routed, only thinking about fleeing for their lives, the establishment was chaotic, and the Wu Yue army blocked the road, and if they wanted to evacuate, they had to form a formation.This forced the defeated soldiers not to dare to flee for their lives from the formation, and as long as the formation was there, the officers could organize non-commissioned officers to resist on the spot.Wu Yuejun killed dozens of soldiers in a row, and the rout soldiers who attacked the front line made the rout soldiers dare not step forward, and some organized officers were sent to communicate with Wu Yuejun, and the unorganized rout soldiers hurriedly gathered around the officers.Li Benshen waved his hand, Wu Yuejun made way of a passage, and the first batch of more than 1,500 people under the command of a staff general quickly boarded the ship through the defense line, while the Ming army outside the defense line could only form a military formation under the command of the officer and wait for Wu Yuejun's release.In this way, the evacuation on the dock is immediately necessary.A Ming sergeant, abandoning his clothes and armor, supported each other, boarded the docked ship, and then quickly left.As the chaos at the wharf was stopped, the Ming troops of all departments refused to defend the hills, and while guarding against the attack of the Qing cavalry, they sent people to contact and evacuate, and the Qing cavalry was a little unable to rush.Hong Chengchou was keenly aware of it, and immediately said urgently: "The infantry army presses up, and the artillery team bombards the enemy ships on the river!"
At this time, Azig didn't have time to care who made the suggestion, and immediately roared: "Quick, the infantry rushes forward, the artillery team presses forward, and bombards the enemy ships!"
”The infantry of the Qing army, which had just been bombarded by the flowering bomb and withdrew, did not have time to breathe a sigh of relief, and after a little formation, they roared again and pressed on the Ming army.Tens of thousands of Qing troops let out an earth-shattering shout and charged from all directions.On the river, on the gunboat of Wu Yuejun's gunboat, Guo Zhong put down the clairvoyant mirror and suddenly roared, "Open the cannon!"
”"Boom, boom!"
The warship roared, the river trembled, and the Ming army's broadside artillery fired a salvo, which immediately blew up the limbs of the Qing army.At this time, the artillery of the Qing army, taking advantage of the artillery on the river, bombarded the infantry and quickly moved forward.Qing soldiers piled up sandbags, built artillery arrays, and quickly set up artillery to aim at warships and troop transports on the river."
Boom boom boom" Qing army artillery array, gunpowder smoke filled, splashing water columns on the river, and the Ming army warship artillery, immediately fired back, the Qing army gunners were immediately blown away.At this time, although there was the fire support of the Ming warships, but as the Qing army pressed up on the whole line, the cavalry killed in the formation, the infantry army and the Ming army strangled together, and in addition, a group of Ming soldiers were pulled back to the south bank by the ships, and the Ming army on the north bank continued to decrease, and the balance of war gradually tilted towards the Qing army.Fierce fighting, from night to morning, the Qing army's artillery array was completely muted, but the Ming army in the old Jiangkou was also getting smaller and fewer.At this time, Li Guo was fighting desperately, a team of Ming army armor soldiers, but rushed over to block the Qing army, Hao Shaoqi set up Li Guo, and dragged back, "Guogong, it's too late if you don't leave!"
”Li Guo was dragged back, looking at his subordinate soldiers, desperately blocking the Qing army, and was cut down by the Qin army, and his heart couldn't help dripping blood."
Guogong, let's go!"
The standard battalion soldiers shouted loudly and raised their broken weapons to fight the Qing army.Li Guo broke away from Hao Shaoqi, looked at the soldiers who were fighting desperately, gritted his teeth, and finally, turned around and strode forward, hurriedly boarded a warship, and the ship slowly left the north shore.()
